RT Conference Proceedings T1 Microstructure and mechanical properties of an ITER-grade Cu-Cr-Zr alloy processed by equal channel angular pressing A1 Hernández Pérez, Aaron A1 Eddahbi, Mohamed Ou Lahcen A1 Monge Alcázar, Miguel Ángel A1 Muñoz Castellanos, Ángel A1 Savoini Cardiel, Begoña AB An ITER-grade Cu–Cr–Zr alloy was subjected to equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) at 400 °C via routes BC and C, i.e. rotated 90° or 180° around the extrusion axis before subsequent passes. The microstructure of ECAP deformed samples showed shear bands confining small recrystallized grains of about ∼0.2–1 μm in size. The best mechanical properties were observed for sample ECAP processed via route BC for which the density of shear bands is high and the interaction among them is notable.
